[@RabbitOvHell1990]

i believe the Apothecary would be the best next pick to tackle! goes great with the Aggressors you already made and will get even better with the ones left on the list :)

[@jules9094]

Won’t do any good, they’re flame aggressors. Don’t roll to hit. But I want to see it and the eradicators

[@RabbitOvHell1990]

@jules9094 you can always declare them as having Boltstorm in the list🤷🏼‍♂️ at least i never ran into problems with that

[@NorthInium]

@@RabbitOvHell1990 Yee but he wants flame aggressors and likely runs the biologus with the eradicators.

[@RabbitOvHell1990]

@@NorthInium that, i cannot recall. It's a valid point though, thanks for bringing that up :)

[@NorthInium]

@@RabbitOvHell1990 I believe he said something like this in the Gravis Captain kitbash could be remembering it wrong though

[@graemealkins9138]

GOOD MAN ... HE PUT THE DOORS BEHIND THE SPONSONS

[@seattlepunkgaming3825]

I thought the same thing!

[@dmeep]

I did this in 5th and as a result couldnt disembark my terminators from it in coherency so some would be destroyed if they had to disembark from the land raider being destroyed. behind the sponson makes sense but its to far from the front ramp so for gameplay reasons you had to assemble them in the illogical way embarking in front of a las cannon instead of behind

[@fatrhino]

That never made sense, disembarking in front of the guns. You wouldn’t do that in the real world military.

[@alextopfer1068]

​@@fatrhino you also wouldn't paint your armour bright red, but the blood angels are over there sticking out like a sore thumb

[@CassioTheWiser]

Very excited to see your take on a practical Raptor Apothecary Biologis!

[@nacidocoqui]

He did a vehicle!! Corax be praised!! 😁😁😁 Add my vote to the Apothecary requests, I'm very curious how you'd tackle the combat medic and work their traditional white/red scheme into the Raptors' look! (yes, I do have an Apothecary in my list, why do you ask?)

[@Slenkamure]

ad ends at 2:23 you are welcome

[@thisisnotmyscene]

These Raptors deserve a fluffy batrep against Winters SEO

[@guidomista3570]

I will never forgive the fact that a Land Raider isnt called that because it raids the land, but because Arkhan Land discovered the raider. Its hilarious, but I hate it.

[@cbjewelz]

I swear they must have come up with that as a joke during a meeting but then said “actually let’s do that”. Probably homage to origins of 40k which were much sillier but I agree, it’s terrible ha.

[@AbelDuviant]

Iirc this is also why Land Speeders are called that in 40k

[@gunslingerspartan]

Jimmy space's marines need things to be named after people or they just don't understand

[@foxbat51]

He did have a pet monkey though. That helps, right?

[@mycure0498]

Just like the Space Marines (they’re not named for being marines entering orbit from space, but because they were created by God Emperor Johnny Space)

[@erns_t]

Apothecary Biologis next, please. A good combat medic is necessary in any infantry force, and the Raptors grim, nihilistic view of the galaxy and their place in it would offer some choice opportunities for adding character to it. I've been a fan of the raptors for nearly a decade, and I'm glad to see they're getting some attention. Keep up the good work!

[@thebrain4743]

Love the idea of a landraider with turret on top. Me personally, I would have tried using one big gun for the turret like the one from the Repulsor Executioner.And Instead of the multimelter I would have mounted the aussault gatliing canons there. But that would have been nothing but personal taste. Awesome kitbash!!!!!

[@Baghdad_Bill]

Suprised noones mentioned this yet, but a Raptors Dreadnought would be awesome. Through the lens of the utilitarian Raptors, maybe they deploy Dreadnoughts on defence, or maybe even mobile artillery? Regardless I would love to see your take.

[@TheMichaellathrop]

So I've seen some really cool putty work done by some of the historical scale diorama crowd where they beveled gaps all around the tank filled it with a modeling putty and then used a tool(ball or small tube I don't remember) to stamp out a series of overlapping indents and it looked like the pieces of steel had been cut by a torch and then left without the finish work, it's maybe a bit more appropriate for Ironwariors or certain guard regiments but I think it could have worked well here.

[@axelnero23]

A raptor techmarine would be neat

[@DocFubar89]

I'm loving this so much. Over a decade ago I made a baneblade / land raider but I burned out making it and never finished. It needs a turret

[@geronimo8159]

*Mortal Kombat voice* finish him!

[@christopherdc89]

Heavy intercessors! They already look so good, I'm sure your conversions will be amazing!

[@monsterofvalhalla3397]

This is just so tough.... and 100% amplifies the silhouette of the Land Raider itself.

[@Jason-wh7in]

Wish GW would bring back custom variants of the land raider. Forget what edition they did that in, but they had a bunch of variants that were all supported on forgeworld.

[@dmeep]

they had the crusader and heavy flamer variant i forget the name of in plastic during 5th

[@Jason-wh7in]

You mean the redeemer? That and the crusader still exist. I’m talking about the Helios, and the others. There was a version that had a thunder fire cannon installed and there was one that had a demolisher cannon too. I’m talking about those crazy ones.

[@dmeep]

Always exciting to see the Raptors army expand, I'd love to see your take on an Invictor Warsuit someday

[@mikepatterson6416]

Awesome conversion! Watching other talented people's techniques is EXTREMELY helpful!

[@XenophonAnabasis]

Sidebar: loved hearing about the raptors in that new Tau book. Was rooting for them the whole time!

[@edwards5013]

Loving all the raptor chapter content you’ve put out this year. Would love to see you tackle the apothecary next.

[@ProAmateurGamers]

The silhouette with turret is awesome makes it much more imposing

[@AlmightStick]

Cant wait for the battle report of seeing the Raptors in battle! Just got the dream match in my head... Your Raptors vs Bricky's Night Lords.

[@ChaseDaOrk3767]

I'd like to see some Trench Crusade kitbashing tutorials

[@Hypnotic-tist]

Omg yes please!!!

[@Mr_Waffle.]

The turret looks so great on the LR body, amazing work

[@stu_gibson]

Superb! Seen a few people do this using the turrett from a Predator, but never a Gladiator or Repulsor/Executioner 👍

[@redspyke8227]

Gods that silhouette fucks hard. The Gladiator turret on a land raider looks so good.

[@ItsEzlan]

i think a Redemptor Dreadnought would look sick in this army too

[@RyngsRaccoon]

I can not express how amazing your take on a land raider looks! I always thought that the Land Raider pattern looked incomplete somehow. All it needs is a turret! When I get around to building and painting a Land Raider for my Space Wolves, I am going to find it very hard not to destroy a Gladiator to add a turret. As you have done here. Great job!

[@DavidFrazee-u7p]

Definitely agree with the several comments asking for the Apothecary Biologis. Would love to see your take on a Raptors version of one.

[@redakumaproduction]

The kitbash AND the scheme are off the chart !! Verry verry incredible .i like it verry much !thank you for sharing it .

[@lolmeatu]

I'm actually super keen for the supressor. I love how the base model looks, so i can only imagine how cool it's going to look after you get your kitbash powers into it.

[@Wildonion1]

Way to knock it out of the park! This strikes a great balance between the original kit and customization, leaving something that still feels recognizable as a Space Marine vehicle. As for the next addition, my vote goes to the Apothecary Biologis. I'm curious how you'll handle the somewhat ostentacious white armor with the more practical look of your chapter.

[@nicholasvinkler1635]

Excited to see where this goes

[@captaincorundum9788]

We just need a new land raider kit

[@pyrosmith646]

Would love to see an Eldar kitbash.

[@fatrhino]

Love these raptor videos. Like to see the lieutenant next.

[@Tonybasten39]

This has always been my biggest issues with the land raiders. They've always needed turrets and this proves why. Such a good build

[@angylizard9344]

It'd be cool to see you do the apothecary (I'm doing a whole deathwatch watch tower and need ideas lol) I always love you're videos man keep it up:)

[@derloco2035]

Great kitbash but don't tell the Adeptus Mechanicus... we really do not want Pete to be investigated for tech heresy 😉

[@commwell8738]

Heavy intercessors and the Apothecary would go great! All are Gravis armour and the increase in their weapon damage would reflect more interest right now.

[@SockTheBop]

I’ve been super sick this past week and a half, so seeing you’ve posted another Raptors video as really cheered me up. Thank you, and merry Christmas~ 🎄

[@ravenniwolvarious8801]

Great conversion Pete, the Raptors would love it. Merry Christmas squire and all the best for the new year.

[@squeethemog213]

I can't wait to see how you tackle the apothecary 🤩

[@cahadox4513]

Blessed by the power of the land raider

[@Hoodges157]

I would love to see the apothecary. I often feel like they come across very gaudy so a more tactical version a la your other raptors would be really interesting

[@DJGMatthews]

I would love to see a repulsor in this style (would be a good way of transporting your eradicators)

[@_R0adki11]

The Heavy Intercessors would be great to see, I would expert the Raptors to have them with scopes and all over spec ops gear.

[@clonetf141]

it is hilarious how this conversion manages to be both rather lore accurate yet also inaccurate (I do wanna say that this genuinely doesnt matter for conversions or armies on the tabletop as the lore is there to inspire the tabletop and not tell you what you can and can not do) but this conversion reminds me of the Land Raider Helios which does essentially this concept but with a whirlwind turrent instead of the gladiator turrent, I think it is super neat and an awesome idea!

[@rudi4712]

really loving your raptor army

[@Kain241st]

Next up has got to be the eradicators, they are pretty much perfect for the raptors.

[@GeltBalthazar.]

you've inspired me to kitbash my own army together, similar to the cyclopean wardens, but I'm going for a deep sea diver theme,

[@SamuelGeist]

Great conversion! I especially love the name. I, too, am fond of finding Latin (or Latin-ish) synonyms for unit names. Please add my vote for the apothecary being the next Raptor model you work on!

[@MikeJMurdock]

looking good. I would love to see your raptors take on a dreadnought

[@BitzboxTV]

Love the turret on it. I know it's not on your immediate list but I'd love to see you do the Impulsor to be something similar to the command rhino.

[@jakeg-shep]

If it was me doing this conversion I would have filled in the original turret hole on the front of the land raider, built up the body shape, employed half of a rhino window flap and counted the gladiator turret as the heavy bolter turret so it didn't stray to far from the normal land raider options.

[@pokinfunatcartman]

Considering you have it, perhaps you can treat us to a double feature of the Impulsor and the Lieutenant, with spare bits not used on the lieutenant repurposed to upgrade the Impulsor with a Raptor operating the Ironhail Heavy Stubber.

[@razgaros]

That conversion makes so much sense i'm suprised it's not an official model.

[@squelch13]

Another great Conversion.. and great model to add to the list.. Would love to have seen the painting for this, as although it's the same recipe, I always find painting vehicles is a completely different beast than painting infantry. Also, my vote would be to see you do the Apothecary Biologis next..

[@debeliivek]

Pete the Wargamer video during the holidays? Well, Merry Christmas to me :)

[@CatRaph]

What a great pattern! The raptors don´t like putting heraldry or bling on themselves, sure, but forgoing the aquila and going to the effort to remove everything is a bit much perhaps?

[@ombrepourpre7562]

Like it ❤ Logic and fonctionnal tank. Much better the new one from the primaris line (who are awful 😢)

[@TrueSherlock]

Hey Pete in the novel elemental council stars a bad ass Raptors character that I would love to see come to life as a model❤

[@Certawin]

[@dr.motte1]

[@nicholasevans3994]

You probably already have ideas for them, but I think it would be cool to see the Eradicators wield their melta weapons the same way Aggressors wield their bolter gauntlets. Merry Christmas!
